| Detection Item | Common Testing Methods | Method Overview |
|---|---|---|
| Content Determination | High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) | Reverse-phase HPLC (RP-HPLC) is employed using a C18 column as the stationary phase. The mobile phase typically consists of methanol-water or acetonitrile-phosphate buffer, with detection wavelengths set at 205–220 nm. This method offers strong specificity and high sensitivity, making it the most widely used technique for content determination. |
| Purity Check | High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) | Impurities are quantitatively analyzed using either the self-reference method or external standard method. This approach effectively detects both known and unknown impurities, enabling assessment of product purity in compliance with pharmacopeial standards (e.g., Chinese Pharmacopoeia, USP). |
| Impurity Analysis | Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS) | Combines liquid chromatographic separation with mass spectrometric detection to enable accurate qualitative and quantitative analysis of structurally similar impurities (e.g., chenodeoxycholic acid, cholic acid), particularly suitable for trace-level impurities and metabolites. |
| Polymorphic Analysis | X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) | Determines crystal structure characteristic peaks to identify the polymorphic form of ursodeoxycholic acid (e.g., α-form or β-form), which is critical for product quality, stability, and dissolution behavior. |
| Melting Point Determination | Microscopic Melting Point Method or Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) | Used to confirm physical properties in accordance with standards. The typical melting point of ursodeoxycholic acid ranges from 200–205°C, serving as a preliminary identification and purity evaluation tool. |
| Related Substances Testing | HPLC (Self-Reference Method of Main Component) | Separates and quantifies potential degradation products or synthetic by-products under specific conditions to ensure total impurity levels remain within acceptable limits specified by pharmacopeial guidelines. |
| Moisture Content Determination | Karl Fischer Titration | Accurately measures water content in samples. Given that ursodeoxycholic acid is prone to moisture absorption, controlling moisture is essential for formulation stability. |
| Residual Solvent Testing | Gas Chromatography (GC) | Uses headspace or direct injection methods to detect residual organic solvents (e.g., ethanol, acetone, dichloromethane) from manufacturing processes, complying with ICH Q3A/B guidelines. |
| UV-Visible Spectroscopy (UV-Vis) | UV-Vis Spectrophotometry | Used for preliminary identification and auxiliary content determination. Ursodeoxycholic acid exhibits a characteristic absorption peak between 230–240 nm, though its specificity is relatively low and it is generally used as a supporting method. |
